Monster cable is a joke product anyway.

Unlike my good pal DangerGirl, I can't be cable free, I use cables (just like the ones that Monster produces) in my work every single day.

Pros in the industry know that Monster is a scam to begin with. As noted above, they charge $60 for a product that should be $10, selling it to newbies and geeks at this inflated price by including some scientific mumbo jumbo that means nothing, but makes it seem like a superior product.

When my recording and producing students come into the studio for classes, they always ask me if they need to buy Monster cable for their home studios. I show them the $3,000,000+ recording studio next door to the room they are being taught in, and point out that if Monster cables made a difference, certainly the studio that Styx, Smashing Pumpkins, Ministry, R. Kelly, and Britney Spears have recorded in would be using these cables. Not a Monster in sight (except for R. Kelly's residual stink).

And they make your mai Tais taste bad too.
